As Charles R. Swindoll said, “The longer I live, the more I realise the impact of attitude on life.” Attitude is more important than facts. We cannot change our past or the fact that people will act in a certain way, but we can control our attitude. Cultivating a positive work attitude is crucial if you want to increase your chances of success at work. While there are no formulas for this, here are five quick tips that can help you immediately.  1. Adopt a “Can Do” attitude. Co-workers who are always negative and do not think things can be done can affect the morale of the company and waste precious time. Instead of saying, “This cannot be done,” figure out a way to complete the task at hand. Say, “It looks tough, let me see what I can do.” 2. Never say die. When faced with setbacks, never give up. Failure only happens when you give up. When you continue to slog against all odds, that effort will pay off regardless of the success of the project. Develop a never-say-die attitude at work
